I am doing the desserts for Thanksgiving at my new in-laws house this year, so am doing some early trial-runs. I think we have a winner with this pie. Very smoothly-textured and creamy! I followed recommendation and doubled all of the spices. I also added in another 1/4 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg. Next time, I think I may take it to 1/2 teaspoon, and grate some on the top as well. My husband said he thought it needed to be just a little sweeter (a very odd thing for him to say), but I thought it was just right. BTW, his piece of pie disappeared in approximately 25 seconds, so take his statement as you will. ;) Great pie, thank you!!!!

Wonderful pie! I loved the flavor of it -- the bit of molasses made it a perfect New England Thanksgiving dessert. I have to laugh, though; I didn't notice until JUST NOW that this makes two pies, not one. I poured the whole thing into a single pie shell and it made a spectacular -- ONE spectacular -- pie. It took a little longer to cook, but not that much longer -- maybe ten minutes. This is my new favorite pumpkin pie recipe!

Thanks for checking out my about me page. Jeff is my husband of 8 years. We have 1 dog that someone dropped off at the side of the road and I brought home, and she rules the house. I love dogs, and hate to see a dog tied up and forgotten.
I love to grow different kinds of tomatoes from seed to can, and give the "extras" away (when I'm working and don't have time to can).
